PURINA® PRO PLAN® VETERINARY DIETS Feline DM ST/OX Diabetes Management has been shown to reduce insulin requirements in some diabetic cats and is also rich in the antioxidant vitamin E to help neutralise the free radicals produced with diabetes.
This delicious complete veterinary diet has been formulated to help regulate blood glucose sugar levels in diabetic cats. It contains low levels of carbohydrate to reduce the upsurge in blood glucose that happens after meals, and high levels of protein to help stimulate insulin release from the pancreas.
Key benefits:
- Clinically proven to reduce the need for insulin injections in some diabetic cats and help control blood glucose levels
- Contains low levels of carbohydrate which enables slower and controlled release of glucose after eating
- Enhanced levels of vitamin E to reduce the oxidative stress associated with diabetes
- With ST/OX for urinary security: formulated to reduce the risk of urinary conditions
Please note: It is not suitable for pregnant cats, kittens or cats that need a low protein diet such as those with kidney failure or some types of liver disease.
